Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Blackstar Amplification dealer

Featuring a duet of EL34s that provide 60 watts of glorious valve power through two high quality Celestion speakers, the HT Stage 60 combo delivers every night, even in the most testing live environment. The pristine clean tones have a 'boutique' style and functions flexibly between two modes - British Class-A and Dynamic US. Each of the two ISF equipped overdrive channels allows a further two modes.

Features

- 60 Watt valve combo
- 2xECC83, 1xECC82, 2xEL34
- Three footswitchable channels
- 2x12 inch Celestion speakers
- Enhanced tone controls with Patent-Applied for Infinite Shape Feature (ISF)
- Voice switching on Overdrive 1, Overdrive 2 and Clean channels
- Presence, Resonance and Master volume controls
- Digital reverb with dark/bright switch
- Speaker emulated output with 1x12/4x12 voicing
- Effects loop with effects level switch
- 4-way footswitch included

ISF (Infinite Shape Feature)

This fully interactive control allows you to infinitely adjust the response of the tone control network between any of the traditional voicings. In this way you can design your own sound and truly find the sound in your head. ISF works in conjunction with the Bass, Middle and Treble controls to give you access to infinite sound possibilities. To get the tone you want, first start by setting the ISF to halfway. Then, adjust the Bass, Middle, and Treble dials to taste. Finally, adjust the ISF to find the tone you want. Lower Mid settings offer a greater effect.

Getting the Tone You Want
- 1. Start with ISF set to half way
- 2. Adjust Bass, Middle and Treble to taste
- 3. Adjust ISF to find your sound (the lower the Mid the greater the effect)

Read all 3 Blackstar HT Stage 60 Guitar Combo Amplifier (60 Watts, 2x12") Reviews

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "unless you want that $4000 boutique thing for bragging rights... YOU SHOULD BUY THIS AMP"

Sound: The sound is great, as a lot of people mentioned the Celestions that come with it aren't the best... I think replacing them with Vintage 30's will make this amp a 10 in the sound category though. Handles every guitar I plug into it with great results now though... but I love Vintage 30's. Then again, if it had Vintage 30's in it, it wouldn't be the price it is either. Feature: can get everything from crisp tele quacking cleans to humbucking shred tones with ease. every knob and switch actually DOES something on this amp. Ease of Use: Very easy to dial in gooey tube goodness... reminds me of a mix of Marshall and Boogie at 1/3 the price of the good ones. Took about five minutes to dial in each channel and get tones that made me want to write/record ideas. Didn't even read the manual, no need really. Plug in, set tone controls to 12 O'clock, turn up the master a bit, dial in some gain and start tweaking the tone controls. Beautiful results, can't wait to record with it. Quality: VERY sturdy. Definitely not a toy amp. Fit and finish are what I'd expect from Mesa. Heavy as hell, but still easier to transport than my Egnater Tourmaster and cab. Value: for this price?? hell yea, its a 10 in the value category. Manufacturer Support: I'll give this a 10, haven't had to deal with support and hope I never will. With a tube amp, if tubes go bad you replace them and bias it... The only other thing that might eventually go bad are pots and switches, but they all feel solid. Keep it away from dust and beer and I predict it'll be a long time before you need that support number. The Wow Factor: hard to define 'sex appeal' when you're talking about an amp... but its definitely got the vintage Marshall vibe going on. Love the look of it. Overall: Right now I've got four amps. A mid-60's Ampeg Geminii II (beautiful clean tones with a nice brown crunch when you crank it), mid-60's Fender Bandmaster (Fender tone, 'nuff said), Egnater Tourmaster 4100 (monster tone head) and now the Blackstar HT stage... If I can't get tone out of those four, I should just hang it up because I'd be deaf. If the Blackstar was stolen I'd replace it in a heartbeat... I expect to use this playing out quite a bit (maybe A/B with the Ampeg?). I did a lot of youtube research before I bought it, wanted to hear it from every player... mic'd and un-mic'd. Read and listened to every review I could find as well. No regrets on the purchase and I'd definitely recommend this amp for anyone who doesn't feel the need for the Marshall or Mesa stack to overpower the other guitarists/bassist on stage. This thing gets LOUD!

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Blackstar, Built like a tank and ready to rock......"

Sound: If you're thinking of getting a Valvking, DON'T. This is what a modern amp should be. While it is made in Asia, it is well crafted and built like a tank. This thing weights over 60 lbs, it even has handles on the side, something i've neevr seen in a combo amp. It has a beutiful clean tone, rivaling a Fender and distortion channels that will make you toss out those nasty distortion pedals. The Reverb is very usefull and switchable. The speakers come with lower end celestions but they are perfeftly fine for this amp. I might switch mine out for Vintage 30's down the road but that's not very high on my priority list right now. If you want to play a wide variety of styles this is the amp for you. Forget that amp modelling crap and get the real deal! Feature: 4 Button Footwtich, Clean, OD1, OD2 and Reverb. The ISF feature allows you to dial in either an american or british tone. Also all of the channels have a voicing switch. This amp is very tweakable. Quality: Built like a Tank. You really get your money's worth with this amp! The Wow Factor: Very clean amp, doesn't feel cheap at all. Overall: This is really the best value in amps right now. If you want good tone at a non insane price this is really the best you're going to get.
